St. Augustine's & Good Council
We recently were treated to tours of St. Augustine’s College and Good Council College in Dungarvan and New Ross respectively. These are two schools that have been sending students to Mercyhurst over the years, and they are proud of their relationship with us and of the accomplishments of their students who graduated from Mercyhurst. It was a day of good feeling and more Irish Hospitality. After a grand “Full Irish” breakfast at St. Augustine’s we toured the school, took some photographs and met some of the staff. Then we were off to Good Council in New Ross, where we ate a great lunch of fresh salmon or beef with potatoes, vegetables, soup, brown bread, and some outrageous desserts. Here we also met 2 impressive young lads who have applied to Mercyhurst and who are hopefully awaiting their acceptance. (Our students remembered their own time awaiting to hear from their college of choice.) Past Mercyhurst alums from Good Council were on hand as well as the staff. It was a great chance for us all to connect.
